"I saw them in a knickknack shop in Georgia and right then knew I wanted to go into business for myself," Koontz said.

The boutique, named for her daughters Haley, 5, and Grace, 7, holds an array of accessories and fun fashions — shorts, tops, scarfs, Havaianas flip-flops, Sorrelli jewelry— plus a selection of hardware and vintage home decor.

"I love everything here," said Koontz, who stocks what she thinks other women will love, too. "I am a happy person if I can shop."

Several vendors show their work there as well, including mason jar "Redneck" wine glasses by Paula Miller, leather cuffs by Dawn J. Design and vintage furniture by Sandra Craig.

Former medical assistant Chantal Withers opened Chan's Day Spa July 3 in the Fair Oaks neighborhood. The Tampa native, a 1982 Robinson High grad, has 10 years of experience as a massage therapist and aesthetician.

Manicures start at $15; pedicures $25. Aromatherapy — think lavender, peppermint, chocolate or vanilla — can be added to any facial or massage for men and women. Other services include spray tan, waxing and body wraps.

Golfers can play 18 holes in under an hour, rain or shine, at any of 75 world-class golf courses without leaving South Tampa.

And without breaking a sweat.

At Tampa Indoor Golf, duffers practice their drives or play the course, from Pebble Beach to Scotland, as a high-tech camera and simulation software provide data on the screen, showing the flight of the ball and ARC of the swing.

"It's extremely accurate," said owner Dean Chitren, who teed up in July to open the indoor facility at the intersection of Henderson and Kennedy boulevards.

"You can get really good with the driving range mode, then take what you learned indoors out to the golf course with really good results," said Chitren, who offers lessons in the short game, putting and course management using the golf simulator.

All skill levels and all ages are welcome. Monthly memberships are available. Introductory offers include one hour for $39 and a 30-minute private lesson for $30.
